there are 4 groups of countries each group consisting of 2 ally countries (since:Only 1 country helped another country when it was attacked by a single country. A, B, C and D are the countries that were attacked but they did not attack or help any other country. No country attacked 2 or more countries or helped 2 or more countries.)
Helper/Attacker Country helped Country attacked
Group 1: P C A
Group 2: S A B
Group 3: R B D
Group 4: Q D C
Since S did not attack C, it attacked the only other victim country i.e. B. Hence Q attacked C as it is the only left potential attacker. From this table all answers can be deduced.

Oops! I tried shorter explaination… Looks like I can’t use diagramatical explaination hence, the error… Anyway, I guess this was simple enough.
